WARNING: 40 mins for two burritos and an egg plate with 2 eggs, hash brown and à sausage Patty??…read more I was really excited to go to this place after seeing pictures of the food and some of the other reviews on yelp but when we arrived there were almost no other customers.. just one couple who already received their food. From what we could see there were 3 people in the kitchen. It looked like 2 cooks and a manager. There was also a 4th person at the front counter. We ordered two burritos and an egg plate that contained two eggs, hashbrowns, and a sausage patty. We waited 40 minutes for the food. The food was okay but waiting that long for it ruined our experience.

Driving through the town of Deming in SW New Mexico and saw this restaurant off the 10 freeway. We…read morewere warmly greeted by the owner who told us to pick a table we preferred . There's a small u shaped bar seating and larger dining areas on either side . I noticed a couple of ribbons on the counter and he mentioned his salsa , red chili snd BBQ has won local awards . He brought out a complimentary basket of chips and green Hatch chili salsa to start . Oh boy! This was the best salsa! Tasty with a kick but not too spicy . My daughter scooped up every last bit. He suggested the special burrito. ($13?) I took his advise and got it . It was humongous! Definitely enough to share . My daughter wanted the salmon dinner which was standard fare so, she helped me eat my burrito instead . My burrito was way better . It had everything but the kitchen sink in it . Sooo good . Even though we ate until we were full , we still had 1/2 a burrito left! (Ate the rest for breakfast the next day !) Glad we found this gem driving through on our road trip. * The owners Hatch chili salsa should be sold in jars !

Glad we stopped because the Chile Relleno was one of the best I had in a long time. The shell was very crispy. Wow covered with sauce. Hard to make crispy inside. The rice and beans came with. It was really good too. We're also order the steak, medium rare, but we had to send it back for a little more cooking. Overall, the flavor was very good. Came with fries and a salad.

If you're in it for a meal it's a skip I'm sorry to say. The wife and I swung through coming down from Hatch, and based on the reviews we were expecting a great meal. What we got was expensive and average. It wasn't terrible, but the fried chicken just didn't have any flavor at all, and neither did the sides or the soup my wife ordered. The owners really love their customers, and were very friendly as does the store dog, but for the flavor and the price, I'ld recommend just getting the pie and moving on somewhere else to get a meal.

How could I not have reviewed China Restaurant in this quaint town of Deming? The restaurant itself…read moreis small and at a corner of the streets in a small, quaint town. It was one of a few options of Chinese/Asian restaurants in town, so there weren't too many options to choose from. So, if you are stucked around town and craved Chinese food, chances are...this restaurant would end up being your pick. The food was ok, a bit on a pricey side. The taste was just fine. From my perspectives, compared to other Chinese places in other larger metros/cities, this place wouldn't stand a chance to compete. But..given it was a place in such a small, very low population town...it served its job of helping tame my craving for Chinese food. Try it if you are stucked in the area/town and this can help you a bit with your Chinese food craving.

I called in an order of beef fried rice, and egg rolls, the guy told me they only come in three so I said ok. The order was over $21, I should have said never mind. I showed up 15 min. Later and there was only one guy cooking and he was also taking orders... the back kitchen was dark, well the whole place was dark, except for the register area. Another guy was waiting for his order, he finished his gave it to him then asked me if I was picking up, I said yes. He took my payment and said, "5 Minutes". I was worried because the place smelled like burnt grease. I trusted it would be ok as I ordered in the past. I returned to my hotel room and my truck smelled like burnt grease and later my room would too. I proceeded to eat my food and I was very disappointed, I couldn't finish it! The rice was like wild rice, had that burnt taste, no eggs or veggies and a few slices of beef which didn't have much taste to it other than grease. It was after 7pm and they were closed so I couldn't return it, I called and he answered again and proceeded to say "takeout order?" After I tried to explain to him my dissatisfaction and the quality. I felt as if he was just not wanting to accept responsibility for just throwing out a crappy meal at the close of business. The egg rolls were hard, burnt and plain right out nasty! Like they were cooked earlier that day and just reheated by throwing them into unclean grease! Never again, I travel through Deming quite a bit and this has become a bad experience for me!

My husband and I were really excited to try this restaurant after hearing so many great reviews…read more Unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to our expectations. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with fried chicken. The chicken was cooked well, but the Alfredo sauce tasted like it was store-bought rather than homemade. I also added the potato and sausage soup for an extra $1.99, and it reminded me of a less flavorful version of Olive Garden's soup. Considering the prices on the menu, I was surprised that soup or salad wasn't included with the meal. My husband ordered the steak, and it was cooked perfectly and absolutely delicious. We also really enjoyed the garlic olive oil with bread and the spinach and artichoke dip--both were definite highlights of the meal. One thing that caught us off guard was the drinks. We each ordered a soda, but instead of receiving fountain drinks, we were each given individual bottles. I'm not sure if they don't have a soda fountain or if it's their way of serving soft drinks, but it felt a little unusual, especially given the higher prices. Overall, the food was a mix of hits and misses. While the steak, appetizers, and bread were excellent, the pasta and soup left us disappointed. We may come back for the steak and appetizers, but probably not for the Italian dishes we originally came to try.

We were greeted by lovely ladies. The friendly happy locals were enjoying their beautiful breakfast and the dining room is delightful. Without hesitation, we took a table. This was going to be a great stop! And we were right! I got the egg white veggie omelet, and she was instantly agreeable to my multiple substitutions. Instead of hashbrowns and toast, I asked for creamy delicious refried beans. Yes! Instead of egg whites, I wanted the whole 3 eggs! Yes! And may I have salsa for my omelet? Yes, and how about a whole bowl? When the salsa was getting low, she asked if I would like more. Yes, please! This salsa was worth its own photo shoot, so flavorful and just the spiciness I love, about medium. Hubby enjoyed his chicken fried steak with white milk gravy. Yeah, I broke my diet and had a few bites! So good!!!
